Republicans target same sex marriage

It didn't need to, as it was never deemed illegal in the eyes of the law (US Constitution), in the first place. There is a recognised 'fundamental right to marry' according to the US Constitution.


Not a prayer.

Clueless.
 
Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015), is a landmark decision of the United States Supreme Court which ruled that the fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples by both the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution. The 5–4 ruling requires all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the Insular Areas to perform and recognize the marriages of same-sex couples on the same terms and conditions as the marriages of opposite-sex couples, with equal rights and responsibilities. Prior to Obergefell, same-sex marriage had already been established by statute, court ruling, or voter initiative in 36 states, the District of Columbia, and Guam.

according to the wisdom of Wiki.

seems clear enough to me...i wonder what's confusing bikerboy?
